I can't seem to find any good info on this -- is it a nut? And if not, why do they call it coconut? Although I guess nutmeg isn't a nut, and eggplant isn't an egg. The English language is weird.
I'm a parent to a super-duper allergic (as in no soy, tree nuts, peanuts, sesame, eggs, or dairy) kid. Plus we have to avoid stuff like seeds (what the hell does that even mean?) and introduce each new food carefully. Said kid also has reflux (fancy name: GERD). And she'd rather do just about anything than stop moving to sit down and eat (so she's petite, although, unlike in her earlier months, she's now growing just fine on the low end of the curve). I've also got a baby who is about to start eating something besides breast milk, and hopefully that feeding process will go a bit smoother the second time around.
I'll be writing about my experiences with them, and also posting on anything I see that's interesting and relates to food, kids and food, or allergies.
Do you have a kid who presents a challenge at the dinner table because of allergies, reflux, or just plain old pickiness? Glad you're here!
